And that’s basically it!
I actively point and laugh at the two I see cruises my town sometimes.
I guess I kind of feel for some of these guys, but the Cybertruck was always going to be a political statement.
Putting aside how dumb it looks, or how terrible it actually is, it's a cultural signifier. Unlike the other Tesla cars, that can easily be separated from Musk and his "brand", that can't be done here.
Musk and his brand was baked into it from conception to production, so, I don't think this is going to resolve itself anytime soon.
Let me jump back to my first point though, I feel kinda sorry for anyone who bought this simply because they have really bad taste, poor financial decision making skills, but who also genuinely weren't aware of the political implications or cultural baggage it would carry.
Although, now that I think about it, every time I've seen a Cybertruck driving, I have also started laughing, but only because it looks just so dumb, and I can't help but imagine the driver losing his finger trying to close trunk.
Ok @Charly™, did ya farm enough internet points? That site is a bigger pile of dogshit than the truck thing.
